First, make sure you have the SIM inserted in the phone correctly. If
you do - and the phone still doesn't recognize the SIM card - you may
need to replace the SIM card.

This is a common problem with some
phones especially when the SIM has been transferred from one phone to
another.

Just about the only way to correct it is to replace the
SIM card with a new one.

You can purchase one on eBay for a few
dollars instead of paying $25 at a retail outlet. Once you receive it,
carefully pop it out of the card it is attached to and correctly insert
it into your phone.

Put in your battery and turn your phone ON.
You should see a 'No Service' message on the screen. If you do, then
your phone can now recognize the new SIM card.

Look on the larger
card you removed the SIM from and get the SIM number from the card.
Then call your service provider and inform them you have replaced a
defective SIM card with a new one in your phone. Give them the new SIM
card number and in less than 1-minute your phone will be working again.

When it does, the message on the screen will change from 'No
Service' to the name of your cellular provider.

The same thing was happening to my phone. I removed the battery, sim card, and memory card. I then replaced the battery an turned the phone on and it loaded to the main screen. I turned the phone back off and put back in the memory card and sim card and then it worked. Hope this helps.
